Does anyone have a pdf, epub or similar of watchmen?

Vertigo is the HBO if comics.

Also Contract with God is my favorite comic book. True story, I bought a copy for a Guillermo Del Toro when I worked on the pilot of The Strain as a gift after talking to him about comics. I was kind of hoping he already owned it so I could lend it to friends but he said he didnt have it in his North American collection.

7133505

Locke and Key: an incredible Lovecraft esque series that is brilliant from the second issue to the last (the first issue suffers from the characters being overly witty but it's still a decent start).

The art is incredible, the writing is incredible, the plot is incredible; it has everything. Don't look up the plot because lots of twats on the Internet post spoilers.

Also, 100 Bullets, History of Violence and Ex Machina are must reads. If you like soppy stuff then Blankets is also recommended.
